Veronica

Those famous teenagers Archie Andrews, Jughead Forsythe, and Betty Cooper first showed up in Pep #22. A few months later, Pep #26 introduced Veronica Lodge, the dark-haired rich girl who would become Betty’s rival for Archie’s affection.

Veronica got her own series in 1989 as part of a relaunch of the Archie Comics line. She stars here in a series of adventures and misadventures suitable for readers of all ages. And while she and Betty may fight for dates with Archie, they’ll always be friends in the end—especially when it’s time to head to the mall to catch a 50%-off clothing sale.
